1. This vibrant shade of turquoise caught my eye. After showing a friend this photo, she told me that robin mothers drop hatchlings' shells far away from the nest to lead predators away from it. That explains why I found this under a short hedge with no nests in sight; the other half was 10 feet away under another low hedge.

2. My guess is that there will be enough watermelon to get everyone through the summer. I was captivated by the repetition and scale in this found pattern.

3. The fuzzy white line resembling sea foam on green waves rolling onto a basalt sand beach is made of cottonwood seeds that floated down and stuck to grass next to a basketball court. (People in the area had horrible allergies that day.)

Hello and welcome!

My name is Kristin Gorski. I recently earned my doctorate (EdD) in instructional technology and media. My research focuses on technology and literacies, writing in digital spaces, and how media literacy may support academic literacy (among other incredibly interesting topics). On occasion, I’m also a freelance writer and editor. “Write now is good.” is my personal blog about writing, creativity and inspiration (with healthy doses of technology in relevant places). I started it in blogging's heyday (2006) and still post to it, time permitting. If you'd like to collaborate on a project, have writing/technology/creativity info to share, or want to say, "Hi," contact me at kgwritenow (at) yahoo dot com.
